hi! for law school apps under the "List the academic honors and awards, or other recognitions you have received"
do I list all/any of the following:
- deans list
- magna cum laude
- computer science honors society (upsilon pi epsilon)
- university honors program

thanks!

I'd list them all. You never know what a reader might find significant. You earned the recognition. Reap whatever benefit you can get.

Yep. List em all. On my resume even, I have a section for scholarships and awards. I break down the awards by award type and then just list the years to make it cleaner. (Dean's List - Fall 2017, Spring 2018, Fall 2018, etc)

I'm going to piggy back on this thread and ask a question too, if someone sees it...

I just put 2 and 2 together and realized that the university I graduated from doesn't put Dean's List on transcripts. Has anyone dealt with that? My academic summary report at LSAC shows academic honors during my freshman year when I was at a state university (this one must be dean's list), and then not again until my senior year, which I believe is Latin honors. I transferred universities my sophomore year, which is why the honors goes away then. Only the first university I attended put DL on the transcript. Dean's List requirement is nothing particularly special at my second school (any semester with 3.0+), but not sure if I should contact LSAC to find out a way to get it on my CAS report or if that matters? Maybe if I had a letter sent in from the school that they don't put it on the transcript but that I qualified? Or should I just put it on my resume and not worry about it? It's obviously not a huge deal, but I'll take anything I can get. I had good grades, but not a lot of awards or noteworthy things, ya know?
